Steve Jobs killed Flash. It was premeditated.

Flash deserved to die

It was atrocious compared to what we have now. But god fucking dammit I love those games. They mean more to me than a lot of AAA studios.

If it had been killed without an adequate replacement (eg. mobile gaming) then people wouldn't have let Flash die. There are open-source flash players.
